FINALLY got my retics!!
Just picked up my 1.1 pair of 2010 Platinum Het Albino Reticulated pythons, stunnig pair, only problem is the owner "maintenence" fed them, so they are both rediculously small, very active and healthy though and will be growing like weeds shortly.
They are for the first of many breeding projects, bred together will make
6.25% normals
12.25% normals het albino
6.25% albinos (white/lavender/purple)
12.5% Platinum(fires)
25% Platinum (fire) het albino
6.25% Ivory/Ultra Ivory/Black eyed Leucistic
12.5% Ivory/ Ultra Ivory/Black eyed Leucistic het albino
6.25% Ivory/ Ultra Ivory/ Black eyed Leucistic albino (white/lavender/purple)
12.5% Platinum albino (white/lavender/purple)
More pics to come once I get home tomorrow night.

Re: FINALLY got my retics!!
supposedly they are kate 2010s, and they came with papers, but I've never heard of a 4 foot mainland at that age.
Generally I used to breed em at 3 years but it depends more on weight/size then anything else.
I've never bred a male before 15 months without getting lots of slugs, and I refuse to breed females that are sub 12 feet and healthy because of the risk to them. Even males need a little extra weight because they tend to loose allot during breeding

Re: FINALLY got my retics!!
those 2 are 1 year old? thats really small, i would think they would be 2x bigger, i bet they are really going to take off in length, in a short amount of time.

Re: FINALLY got my retics!!
The guy was feeding them a fuzzy rat ever 2-3 weeks...
I'll expect about a foot in length a month for the next year from the female, and about 6-8 inches a month from the male.
